Abstract: The invention relates to relatively light and thermally stable granulated, fermentation-broth-based animal feed additives having a high content of L-lysine and to low-loss methods for their production from broths obtained by fermentation.

Abstract: Food products containing at least two components are provided. These products have at least one baked component and at least one non-baked component. The non-baked component contains either GLCN and/or NAG.

Abstract: Glucosamine, N-acetylglucosamine and ?-glucan compositions suitable for human or animal consumption or use are disclosed. The glucosamine, N-acetylglucosamine and ?-glucan compositions are derived from fungal biomass containing chitin. Various methods of producing glucosamine, N-Acetylglucosamine and ?-glucan compositions are also disclosed.

Abstract: The disclosure provides methods of making heat-pasteurized liquids, such as beverages, that contain glucosamine, wherein glucosamine is present in the beverage during the pasteurization process. The disclosure also provides liquids, such as beverages, made by these methods, as well as methods of using the glucosamine supplemented liquids, for example to treat osteoarthritis.

Abstract: Food products and beverages which include N-acetyl-D-glucosamine (NAG) are provided, as are methods of their use and preparation. Embodiments of the supplemented food products and beverages are heated to high temperatures, such as those used in pasteurization, without significant adverse effects on taste, color, odor and/or texture.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method for producing an amino sugar selected from the group consisting of N-acetylglucosamine, glucosamine, or a combination thereof. The method comprises culturing a yeast in a culture medium and recovering N-acetylglucosamine, glucosamine, or a combination thereof, wherein the yeast comprises an exogenous nucleic acid sequence encoding glucosamine-6-phosphate synthase operably linked to a promoter. The invention also provides a genetically modified yeast that produces an amino sugar selected from the group consisting of N-acetylglucosamine, glucosamine, or a combination thereof.

Abstract: The invention pertains to compositions containing glucosamine and organic acids, methods of making such compositions and methods of using such compositions.
